It has GPS guidance for LOAL. It doesnt need to track at 100km, you drop it in a spot and it will find a target when it gets there.
Similar reason to why the upcoming EGBU’s are significantly better than the old paveways.
It doesnt have to track the whole way, it just needs to track when its in range to do so. GPS will put it in the vicinity of where it needs to be.
Quick question, what generation of thermals does the LANTIRN pod receive?
the main gap here is range both of these missile need to be much closer to do that
Oh yeah but again - AGM-65s still have POINT track. Which is effectively a GPS-ish guidance
That only the AGM-65A/B, and it should have them. It was actually a nerf. They nerfed the lock range and working contrast seekers and instead made it able to lock onto the ground to “still achieve the known ranges” which leads to ppl spiking mavs into the ground thinking they locked a vehicle.
plus i think where going a little off topic any way the point here is the get isreal a new weapon my point is that if we ask for the spice it wont get added since similar weapons for other nations arnt in the game, but to instead focus on asking for the popeyes since they are close to the pgms we already have.
I agree, Popeyes are more likely to get added, you could add them to the US as well.
I still think we should ask for SPICE 1000
This is absolutely not needed when the AGM-65D is already present on the F-15E.
not needed for the us honestly
Gaijin seems to have an aversion to giving Israeli jets anything unique, and making them almost C&P of US jets, therefore giving it to the US would increase the chances of Israel getting it .
I too am of the opinion Popeyes are the least eyebrow raising potential addition. As others have said, they will basically play like PGM’s already found on Tornado.
Spice would arguably make I better than E In A2G, and then we’re back to square one in our wider goal to get parity between these two aircraft.
I would even be fine with the F-15I getting AGM-65Ds (I would actually prefer this to anything else out of game balance, necessity, and effectiveness) but I know that goes against a lot of what people expect out of war thunder and “realistic” loadouts. I just want any fire and forget item at this point lol.
If they added the F16C Barak I we would already have it with mavericks and it would have been a phenomenal addition to the tree, not exactly sure how it got bypassed for an air to air focused one instead lol.
the dream is a F-16I with RAMPAGE’s
SPICE 250 would be an overkill but SPICE 1000 in number of 4 seems fair imo
Yep, this is what I believe to be the most balanced thing by far, also they can just artificially set the function of the seeker up to work as we need it to for game balance. Give it essentially a head that performs identically to an AGM-65D. I think a lot of the people getting too carried away with “100km+ ranges” and stuff like that forget that this is a game and it will be implemented with balance in mind.
My question on the x4 SPICE 1000 load out is if we’d be able to have A2A missiles with it
Would not be opposed to that either. The sheer quantity of 250’s is the biggest concern against them.
i think that’s because the players tend to ask for stuff beyond what other nations have in game already if we stick to something simple like the popeye i 100% think we can can get it in the game, maybe not this update since there not model for it but def by the December update.
yes
